Do you have the coreutils package installed? Is "install" there? If not,
it will not build the rpm structure correctly, see .spec file line 66.
That won't affect the base server operation but it will keep the
supplemental files from being added to the rpm... which means you have
to set it all up manually and have lost some of the advantage of the
package.
Personally, I build on a dedicated build machine that has all the
requirements and then simply deploy from a local repository to the
target... whether it be test or production. That saves having to figure
out the build environment every time and keeps compilers out off
production boxes.

I had no errors other than the missing directories that I had to manually

radiusd is uder /etc/logrotate.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1106 Dec 1 09:15 radiusd
and
radius is under (not radiusd)
/etc/pam.d
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 360 Dec 1 09:15 radius
It looks like the missing directories is a permission issue but I was
working as root.
The server runs fine. Anything else I should check ?
Thanks

It sounds like something went wrong in the rpmbuild. That
script should
have been included. The base script is included in
"~/rpmbuild/BUILD/freeradius-server-2.1.1/redhat/rc.radiusd-redhat".
That should have been installed @ "/etc/rc.d/init.d/radiusd". It not,
check that you got "radiusd" under "/etc/logrotate.d" and
"/etc/pam.d",
those might be missing too. Again, you should not have to create that
stuff manually. That's part of the advantage of a package and
it should
be there if the package built correctly.

Hi all,
I 've succesfully built the freeradius-server-2.1.1-0.x86_64.rpm.
I only had to manually create the directories RPMS,
SOURCEs, SPECS
and x86_64 during the process.
When installing I had to uninstall version 1.1.3 because of
conflicts
but once I did it the rpm worked smoothly.
My only problem now is that I don't have the init script on
/etc/init.d.
Does anybody know where I can get it from ?
And, I am just wondering if we could make this rpm
available for other
people to use it.
Thanks

Don't know. If you look in the .spec file you'll see what
additional
work is done in the package that isn't done otherwise. In
addition to
init.d you may need to deal with logrotate.d and pam.d,
ldconfig and
chkconfig, not to mention the users and groups it creates
or the log
files it customizes. You can do all this configuration by
hand if you
know what to do, but its a lot of extra work. This is why
its a good
idea to do an rpmbuild and install the package. It should
deal with the
existing version as well as enable a proper upgrade when a
new version
becomes available in the repository. Simply building from
source may not
be compatible with the previous version that's already there or
compatible with any upgrade because the package has
additional things
and sometimes has them in different places. Just my opinion but I
strongly discourage not using packages for applications
already in the
distros repository.

Thank you.
Actually the server is running very well now. Investigating more I
realized that version 1.13 is still there but in different
directories, so when I set to start on boot it will run
version 1.13.
Does anybody know if it is only a matter of changing the radiusd
script on /etc/init.d to point to version 2.1 daemon and
conf files ?
Or there is anything elese that I have to do ?

I assume that you are referring to a build from source
as opposed
to an rpmbuild from source?
If that's the case you would want to review this:

Hi all,
I am posting this so it can save some headaches for other
people in
the future.
I've been trying to install FR on a 64 bits OS for a
while. First I
tried RH 5.2 and I got the following errors
/usr/bin/libtool --mode=link gcc -o radmin
radmin.lo /usr/lib/libreadline.so /usr/lib64/libtermcap.so
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/freeradius-2.1.1/src/lib/libfreeradius-
radius.la
util.lo log.lo conffile.lo -lnsl -lresolv -lpthread
-lreadline
-ltermcap gcc -o .libs/radmin .libs/radmin.o
/usr/lib/libreadline.so
/usr/lib64/libtermcap.so .libs/util.o .libs/log.o
.libs/conffile.o
/usr/src/redhat/BUILD/freeradius-2.1.1/src/lib/.libs/libfreer
adius-radi
us.s
o -lnsl -lresolv -lpthread -lreadline -ltermcap
/usr/lib/libreadline.so: could not read symbols: File in
wrong format
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake[4]: *** [radmin] Error 1
Then I move on to CentOs since Greg Woods informed that he
is using it
without any grief.
When I was making it on CentOS I got the exactly same
errors above.
Then I tried to install on Fedora 10 and it installed
smoothly. After
playing with Fedora for some time I realized that it is
too slow
compared to CentOS or RH and I decided to move back to
CentOS and find
a way to properly install it.
The clue to fix the problem was provided by Greg when he
said that the
FR included with CentOS was too old. When I installed the
first time I
didn't realized that there is a FR 1.13 version on CentOS
so I didn't
installed along with the OS.
This time I selected 1.13 version and it was installed normally.
Then I downloaded version FR 2.1 and it installed
smoothly. Now I
have
radiusd -v
radiusd: FreeRADIUS Version 2.1.1, for host
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu,
built on Nov 28 2008 at 23:06:41
I read somewhere in the site that this is not the
recommended way to
do it and that 2.1 should be installed in a different location.
If someone could comment about any problems that can arise
it will be
appreciated.
Thanks
Jair Santos

I am using it on CentOS 5.2 x86_64. The freeradius package that
comes with CentOS 5 is old though, I compiled freeradius from
source.
